    Yep it's relevant, but that article was already linked previously in this thread.

    The guy has no discretion or class. That said, the way to shut the clown up is to take away his ammunition and make the network perform as it should.

    Just look at the frequency numbers. Band 27 is SMR ONLY. Band 26, which is what Sprint is using, is SMR plus cellular 850. I don't know who Band 27 would be useful for. SouthernLinc maybe, NII, Telus Mike...?

    No SVLTE....Certainly not a deal breaker, but definitely disappointing.

    I'm looking for a dip when the earnings report is released. If the dip is enough to make S palatable for me, I plan to pounce on it.

    Why would they want to do that though? Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    I've got a Zing on order. It's gonna be replacing a HTC Evo View tablet on my account that has served me well. Hopefully it should be delivered around the middle of next of next week at the latest.

    Oh wow, the infamous Mendocino County. IF Sprint were to buy USCC, I'm sure that rather annoying OCD guy over on HoFo that has made around 25K posts about Mendocino County would blather on incessantly about it.

    Well do keep in mind that the 700MHz lower A license that LEAP has in Chicago was originally VZW's and they swapped it (and $120M) for PCS and AWS spectrum. Also I was going by the press release reported here: http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/18/verizon-selling-700mhz-spectrum-but-only-if-government-approves/ Since VZW was uncharacteristically offering to sell spectrum I took that to mean that they weren't generally interested in that spectrum. If you have a different interpretation, I'm all ears (so to speak).

    A quarter of a billion dollars (give or take) is a lot of money to speculate with...

    Have fun!

    Who else is there? Sprint has no other 700MHz licenses and as such probably wouldn't be interested. T-Mobile only has a 700MHz in Boston via MetroPCS with no announced plans to do anything with it. AT&T has shown no interest in 700MHz lower A licenses since they don't want to support Band 12 and 700MHz interoperability. Verizon has likewise shown no interest in 700MHz lower A spectrum. So who's left that's a willing buyer?

    The most likely candidate is USCC in my opinion.

    Seven AWS-1 licenses, eleven BRS licenses, one WCS license and 29 PCS licenses if the FCC's dashboard is up to date. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Looks like nTelos is angling for someone to come along and put them out of their misery, perhaps Sprint... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-07-15/ntelos-ceo-sees-company-as-strategic-asset-as-mergers-escalate.html?cmpid=yhoo

    How odd. I generally haven't found that to be the case in my experiences. However, if you go deep enough into some of the mega resort casinos there is the possibility of switching to roaming. Hopefully, even that issue will disappear when LTE800 is widely deployed.

    Don't forget about the Netgear Zing or U341 USB modem also available on July 19. http://newsroom.sprint.com/news-releases/get-ready-to-experience-two-of-the-first-tri-band-4g-lte-devices-from-sprint--netgear-zing-mobile-hotspot-and-netgear-usb-modem--available-july-19.htm?previousArticle=0&nextArticle=11075&gotoArt=%2Fnews-releases%2Fget-ready-to-experience-two-of-the-first-tri-band-4g-lte-devices-from-sprint--netgear-zing-mobile-hotspot-and-netgear-usb-modem--available-july-19.htm

    Does the playbook also happen to include the price of the devices?
  20. Rawvega
    True. They have zero incentive to help a competitor unless coerced by regulators.
  21. Rawvega
    Heavens no!

    Yeah it's a lil toasty around these parts. I did see someone a week or two ago on a man-lift working on a Sprint site that's marked on the completed map, so that made sense. I don't envy the folks that get up there and complete this necessary work in these weather conditions. I hope they're well compensated! Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Josh, do you have any additional about what's going on with Sprint in Vegas? Things seem to have ground to a near halt here. A lot of things seem to happen in Vegas first with all of the cell companies (because we deserve it Damn it ). The slowing of progress in Vegas, at least based upon my personal observations, makes me wonder if they're planning on making additional modifications here before launching such as Clearwire's TD-LTE.

    I understand your friend's angst, but this is an interesting development nonetheless. I wonder if this is an indictment of the job that Sprint/Son thinks that Ericcson has done. Of course, Sprint's agreement with Ericsson doesn't end until 2016 I believe so I wonder what the endgame might be.
